Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage

Chapter 165 Hiashi: Hizashi, are you stupid?!

Within the Hyuga clan's territory.

Hiashi listened quietly as Hizashi recounted his entire journey, a hint of helplessness flashing across his face.

"Hizashi, you did very well, but there's one thing you were careless about."

"what?"

Hizashi roughly knew what was going on, but his face was still full of confusion and bewilderment.

Hiashi patiently explained, "Although the Kaguya clan only has nine members, Raizo has not treated us unfairly, giving us seven pregnant women. If we can reproduce and thrive, we may be able to continue our race."

"Um."

Ri almost nodded.

Hiashi said, "Then, who decides the affairs of the Kaguya clan?"

This is what the Japanese national football team is concerned about.

In his view, the Kaguya clan, upon arriving in Konoha, should naturally be placed under the jurisdiction of the Hyuga clan and managed by them.

But now.

Jingyan's actions suggested that he intended to take the Kaguya clan to the village and make arrangements for them.

The shrew remained silent, then bowed deeply: "I didn't expect this; it was my fault."

"That's not wrong. You are straightforward, loyal, and unwilling to think about such practical matters, but as the head of the family, I have to consider more."

The weather was mild and gentle.

A smile appeared on his face: "You also took a risk this time. Although it wasn't perfect, it was still a success. Thank you for your hard work."

"It was all for the family, but unfortunately... it wasn't perfect."

I deeply regret the difference in daily life.

Hiashi chuckled and said, "That kid won't do anything without a reason. How could he let our Hyuga clan take all the benefits so easily? You can't blame yourself for this."

He stood up.

"Get up, I'll teach you a technique."

"what?"

Nissai was bewildered, but after a moment, he came to his senses and quickly caught up with Nissai's pace.

Once outside, Japan struck a pose.

"Now I will teach you a secret technique that only the main family can master. Watch carefully."

"yes!"

The Japanese man rolled his eyes.

Then he saw Hiashi raise his palm, chakra gathering throughout his body, and then chakra bursting out from his pressure points.

This is……

A hint of shock appeared in Hizashi's eyes.

Baguazhang - Reversing Heaven!

Within the Hyuga clan, the secret techniques were passed down orally within the main family; no scrolls of the techniques have been preserved.

In theory, only the head of the main family can learn it.

however.

At this moment, Rizu is slowing down, demonstrating the secrets of the Reversal of Fortune.

The body rotates, and the chakra erupting from various acupoints forms a powerful defensive barrier.

Hishi swallowed hard.

The way Japan is doing it is not much different from direct coaching.

After stopping, Hiashi Hyuga looked at him.

"Did you see it clearly?"

"Yes."

Ri almost nodded.

Just as he was about to say something, Hiashi nodded slightly and assumed a fighting stance again.

"Look carefully."

Immediately afterwards, a powerful force condensed on his palm—

He struck out with a palm.

The condensed chakra stirred the air, then transformed into a powerful palm strike that directly hit the wooden doll in the distance.

Bang!

A muffled thud.

The wooden figure exploded, turning into countless fragments.

Such incredible power!

The Japanese man was deeply shocked.

Bagua Empty Palm.

He had seen this move before, and he knew it himself, but Hiashi's empty palm was much more powerful and terrifying.

"The Eight Trigrams Empty Palm is known to both the main family and branch families, but in fact, this move has an even higher form. However, many techniques are only mastered by the main family, such as..."

As Rizu spoke, his eyes narrowed.

Extend both palms.

Bagua Empty Wall Palm!

The two hands joined together, but it wasn't a simple one plus one; the two streams of chakra superimposed and compressed, driving the air to explode.

boom!

The other wooden figure shattered completely, and at the same time, a deep crater was punched into the ground behind it.

That was a terrifying slap.

Hiji was deeply shocked.

At that moment, Orochimaru and Kyohiko's unintentional words flashed through his mind.

Hyuga is very strong, but unfortunately...

Before, he didn't understand what was a pity, but now, he understands a little better.

Despite possessing numerous powerful secret techniques and skills, various limitations have prevented the family from further enhancing its strength.

He dared not voice any opinion.

Hiashi's attitude has improved, and he is willing to teach him some of the main family's secret techniques, but this does not mean that his nature has changed. If he has any objections, Hiashi may well think that he is taking advantage of him.

but.

Thinking of this, Riza couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He's changed too!

In the past, I would teach Japanese football and learn from him without thinking so much.

"The Eight Trigrams Empty Palm comes next, followed by the Eight Trigrams Empty Wall Palm, and then there's the Mountain-Breaking Strike. But for now, you should master the Empty Wall Palm first."

The full strength of the day is withdrawn.

The Mountain-Shattering Strike is incredibly powerful, but it's primarily used in close combat, while the Empty Wall Palm is a powerful palm strike that can be used at medium to long range, making it more useful in comparison.

After a slight pause, Hiashi said, "Hizashi, you are my greatest asset, you absolutely cannot have any accidents happen to you..."

"Brother."

I was moved by the daily life.

Hijikata continued, "Also, you need to help me figure out how to further improve them."

"yes!"

The Hyuga clan has been resting on its laurels for far too long!

With just a simple acupressure point, Jingyan can create numerous derivatives and variations, while they haven't made much progress over the centuries.

It is clear that family succession is not perfect and requires further thought and research.

They haven't done enough in this area.

The reason is--

Many techniques are only for those in the main family to practice, but the main family does not innovate or create new ones.

Hijiki sighed inwardly, increasingly convinced that there were problems with the clan system.

Unfortunately, he couldn't think of a solution.

As Hizashi left the main family's residence, the image of a certain person flashed through his mind.

Perhaps, Kyohiko could help?

but.

He needs to think of something to say.

……

In Konoha Hospital, Kaguya Eisuke lay indoors, her heart filled with anxiety.

He suffered from a family bloodline disease that had been incurable for hundreds of years. Before coming to Konoha, he had already given up on himself. If it weren't for his wife and unborn child, he would never have agreed to leave the Land of Water.

But now.

A glimmer of hope inevitably rose within him—

This is Konoha.

Outside, there is Tsunade, the best medical ninja in the entire ninja world.

What if it can be cured?

When there is hope, it's easy to feel a sense of wishful thinking.

He gave a wry smile.

At this time.

The equipment was on him, closely monitoring his physical condition. In addition, Tsunade's chakra was injected into his body through a steel wire.

With the combined effects of chakra and instruments, Tsunade's expression grew increasingly grave.

Finally, she glanced silently at Kyohiko and Sarutobi Biwako beside her, sighed softly, and said, "Take a look."

With that, she walked to the side and said nothing more.

Kyohiko has already seen it.

He had a general understanding of Yingyou's situation, but he couldn't figure out anything more from looking at it.

But it's Tsunade.

She sat to the side, her brow furrowed.

"Sis, what do you think?"

"It's very difficult. First of all, his blood and organs have various toxins and bacterial infections, which have accumulated over many years and are now difficult to reverse. Even with treatment..."

Tsunade shook her head.

The treatment may only alleviate the symptoms and allow Kaguya Eisuke to live a few more years.

However, it did not offer much help for Kaguya Eisuke's bloodline disease.

At least.

She had no choice.

Jingyan nodded.

Kaguya's illness is complex, involving both infection and toxins, as well as a problem with her blood production itself.

Although it has not yet been tested surgically, and is only observed through ninjutsu and instruments, the probability of problems with the hematopoietic system is very high.

Otherwise, the human body can heal itself.

The former is easier to solve.

Bloodletting, blood exchange.

With medical ninjutsu, safe treatment is not difficult.

but.

The latter is tricky.

Current medical ninjutsu is insufficient to treat this condition.

If the body's blood production is impaired, even a blood transfusion will be futile and may even deplete vital energy and hasten death.

"No wonder it's a bloodline disease."

Tsunade sighed.

She got up to open the door and leave, but thinking of the expectant gazes outside, her hand fell back down, and she hesitated to open the door to the testing room.

Tsunade turned around: "Kyohiko, you always have a lot of ideas, do you have a solution?"

Not yet.

Jingyan shook his head.

The original Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi were both quite capable, and their research on the human body may have been even more extensive than it is now.

but.

They were equally helpless in treating Kimimaro's illness.

but.

Compared to Kimimaro, Kaguya Eisuke isn't that bad.

He thought for a moment: "Let's try the basic approach first, remove the toxins and bacteria from his body using a micro-extraction technique, and then observe the results."

"That's for sure."

Tsunade nodded.

She definitely had to do it, but she could foresee that this treatment wouldn't address the root cause. She had initially thought that Kyohiko might have some unconventional ideas...

Sigh, that's asking too much of people.

Tsunade composed herself: "Let's go."

She was somewhat relieved that Kaguya Eisuke's illness was not the first case in the Kaguya clan, and Kyohiko had also warned her about the difficulty of treatment, so Kaguya Ayako must have been mentally prepared.

really.

After their conversation, Ayako Kaguya was not surprised.

If bloodline limit diseases can be cured quickly, they won't cause headaches for many bloodline limit families for so long.

Even Tsunade...

There's no way to do better in this regard.

but.

Tsunade said, "Let's try to extract the toxins and bacteria from his body first, and then prohibit him from using the Corpse Bone Pulse for a period of time to see the subsequent effects."

"Yes, I will warn him."

Kaguya Ayako nodded.

Tsunade reiterated, "None of you should use the Corpse Bone Pulse technique for now."

Although the Corpse Bone Pulse is powerful, Konoha is not yet in a position to need them.

Especially pregnant women.

Even if war breaks out, it won't come to the point where the elderly, the weak, and pregnant women have to be put on the field.

At that moment, Ayako Kaguya truly felt—

Although both are among the five great ninja villages, Konoha's style is really different from Kirigakure's.

After saying goodbye to Aya Kaguya, Tsunade realized a crucial question.

residence!

"Kyohiko, the Ibri family just rented or bought a place to live before. What about them? How should we arrange things for them?"

Tsunade walked along, speaking in hushed tones.

"Don't worry, they have money."

Jing Yan said.

Kaguya Raizo may not be a man of many thoughts, but he is by no means a stingy head of the family. He not only allowed them to take the nine people away, but also gave them a considerable amount of money.

Those were gifts from the daimyo and nobles of Kyoto to their families.

and so.

With some subsidies and assistance, their survival will be no problem in the short term.

As for what happens next, they will need to work together to generate profits for Konoha; they can't just keep doing charity forever.

Kyohiko shared his idea, and Tsunade nodded, indicating that she already had a plan.

"They are different from the Ibri clan. We will waive the rent for two years to at least support them until the children are born. Kaguya Eisuke's treatment will be included in the research expenses."

"As for the other one."

"The research on prosthetics could be a good opportunity for another person to try it out."

"Tsunade said."

At Kyohiko's suggestion, Konoha Hospital had already begun in-depth research on prosthetics and has recently made considerable progress.

"Okay, I'll talk to him."

Jingyan agreed.

The other Kaguya clansman was only missing his right hand; with a prosthetic limb and puppetry techniques, he would at least be a decent fighter.

Perhaps it's because they just arrived in Konoha.

The Kaguya clan members were all crammed into Konoha Hospital, including the man who was missing his right hand.

Kyohiko vaguely remembers...

His name is Kaguya Ippei. He is nearly forty years old, but apart from missing an arm, he still looks strong and healthy, even healthier than Kaguya Eisuke.

He noticed that Kyohiko was approaching.

He raised his head, slowly stood up, and bowed as if to pay his respects.

"I remember, your name is Kaguya Ippei?"

"Yes, sir."

Kaguya Ippei bowed and nodded.

Jingyan asked, "Could you tell me what happened to your right hand?"

"It's nothing, the enemy was strong, and we killed them in the battle."

Kaguya Ippei said calmly, "This kind of thing was very common in the Kaguya clan in the past. Now, many of the wounded have already died in battle."

He paused for a moment before adding to the story.

If the war hadn't ended so quickly, he and Kaguya Eisuke would have died on the battlefield, instead of what they are doing now.

From his tone, Jingyan could easily tell...

Kaguya's clan does not consider living like this to be a good thing.

Fortunately.

Kaguya Eisuke still has his wife and children to worry about; otherwise, this kind of mentality would only make his condition worsen faster.

Jingyan thought for a moment, then said, "We definitely can't heal your hand, but we have a new type of prosthetic limb that requires chakra to function. Would you be interested in trying it?"

"A prosthetic limb?"

Kaguya Ippei was stunned.

A few seconds later, he realized: "A prosthetic hand?"

"You can think of it as a prosthetic hand that requires a certain level of puppetry skills to control, but I will train you in this area, and with your abilities, it shouldn't be difficult for you to master it."

I've mentioned the difference in daylight before.

Kaguya Ippei was previously an elite Jonin, and with the addition of the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse), she was even stronger.

Although he is missing an arm, he is definitely not weak when combined with a prosthetic arm.

Kaguya Ippei asked, puzzled, "Konoha shouldn't lack ninjas, right?"

"You don't lack anything. Even if you get a prosthetic limb, you don't necessarily have to become a ninja, but you have the right to regain your health."

"Kyohiko said."

Kaguya Ippei was somewhat moved.

Kirigakure has always been a place of survival of the fittest, and the Kaguya clan, who reveres battle, also adheres to this philosophy.

Previously, he had never considered prosthetics or becoming a ninja.

Kaguya Ippei didn't think about it for long.

"Can."

"Come with me."

Jingyan led him to the research lab.

The people in charge of the research institute are mainly young elites represented by Sheci, while newcomers such as Jingyin and Hanfang occasionally come to assist.

A few minutes later, Jingyan received a sample.

"The appearance is rough, but the structure and functions are complete."

Sheci blushed slightly.

Since the research on prosthetics and acupoints was initiated, she has not participated in any surgeries for a long time, but progress has been very limited.

Jingyan fiddled with it for a while.

"Regarding ninjutsu..."

Sheci was about to explain.

Immediately afterwards, she saw Jingyan's prosthetic arm clicking and clacking, and then his fist snapped open, revealing the iron pipe in the middle.

"Is this intended to install poison gas or poison needles?"

"Poison needle."

Snake Ci was still somewhat shocked and instinctively answered.

Watching Kyohiko skillfully manipulate the prosthetic limb, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you studied puppetry?"

"No, I've seen them use it. It's very simple to control with just one hand."

Kyohiko tossed it to Kaguya Ippei, "You give it a try."

Kaguya Ippei took it, looked at the two of them, and then put on the prosthetic leg.

The prosthetic limb, which was incredibly flexible in Kyohiko's hands, now seemed rusty, unable to even extend its fist.

Snake Ci quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

now it's right!

She glanced at Kyohiko discreetly.

It's not her problem, it's that this guy is too weird!

Snake said gently, "Don't be nervous. Our puppet prosthetics are still in their first version, so it's normal that they're a bit difficult to control."

"A little."

Kaguya Ippei couldn't help but say.

After trying for a while, he slowly mastered some of the usage.

Then, he raised his hand as if to pull out a bone.

Jingyan immediately pressed down and handed him his ordinary blade.

"The Corpse Bone Pulse ability should not be used frequently unless absolutely necessary."

"Yes."

Kaguya Ippei took the sword.

Clang!

The knife fell to the ground.

He picked it up and began to figure out how to use it.

Kyohiko would also remind him what to do, and after half an hour, Kaguya Ippei was slowly able to control the blade.

After trying it out, he became excited and his fighting spirit soared, as if he wanted to find someone to fight.

Jingyan subtly used illusion magic to influence and calm him down, preventing him from getting too agitated, while asking, "How are you feeling?"

"It's so much better than not having hands!"

As Kaguya Ippei gradually became more skilled, even illusions could hardly suppress his emotions. "My lord, I want to go out and try."

"Okay, let's try it outside."

Jingyan nodded.

Kaguya Ippei walked out and then quickly manipulated the puppet's hand.

The blade speed is very fast!

but.

Even more incredible is his body.

Kaguya Ippei was incredibly flexible; when she swung her sword, her figure seemed to dance, like willow catkins.

Corpse Bone Pulse: Dance of the Willow!

Jingyan instantly drew his sword.

Boom!

As the blades touched, Kaguya Ippei's face flashed with excitement, and the blade's movement changed again.

His knife is precise and fast, swiftly stabbing towards Kyohiko's vitals. Moreover, his hands and body are flexible, often allowing him to make unpredictable changes in his moves.

With each change of move, his blade was precise and deadly.

Corpse Bone Pulse: Dance of the Camellia!

however.

咣 咣 咣!

Kyohiko's sword always managed to catch his blade, and...

After several battles.

Kara!

After a soft cracking sound, Jingyan retreated and jumped out of the battle.

"One of the connection points of the prosthesis cracked."

"What?"

Kaguya Ippei, who was originally full of fighting spirit, was still a little uncomfortable when he suddenly stopped. When he heard Kyohiko speak, he immediately froze for a second.

Snake Ci quickly stepped forward.

After examining it, she touched the connecting joint below in shock.

"It's really cracked!"
